CRT provides insights into the structural nature of racism as an issue of individual prejudice and one built into society’s fabric. However, many states are attempting to or have successfully banned CRT and its related concepts. Despite the chilling effect of these regulations, community colleges still have a role to play in integrating CRT and other culturally responsive pedagogies. Liberating the hidden curriculum refers to instructional methods and practices for challenging the implicit norms, values, structures, and practices in schools that perpetuate social norms and reproduce racial oppression. The principles of CRT can also help challenge microaggressions and encourage candid discussions of biases to reduce their impact and alter hidden curricula, thus engendering more equitable student experiences, opportunities, and outcomes. Implications for institutional and classroom practices include the importance of professional development and integrating culturally relevant and responsive pedagogy to provide more empowering educational experiences for all community college students.","PeriodicalId":51558,"journal":{"name":"Community College Journal of Research and Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46899397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transfer shock and transfer student capital were the two frameworks employed to model sampled students’ transfer experiences and the barriers to transfer. Data sourced from questionnaires and one-on-one interviews with 15 representative transfer students illuminated major barriers in academic advising and financial aid, which mirror the experiences of urban transfer students. Results also indicate that sampled students wanted more remote options and infrastructure (e.g., internet) for learning in rural areas. Most striking among the study’s findings was the nature of personal barriers experienced among the nonwhite students sampled, their unique challenges suggested there may be demographic differences among minoritized sub-groups in rural areas as they held different types of transfer capital and experienced transfer shock differently.","PeriodicalId":51558,"journal":{"name":"Community College Journal of Research and Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48112995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
